    Latest pictures of Althea or Al?

    Most of you seemed to think the Barred Rock was a cockerel a couple of weeks ago. I took some pictures yesterday and just wanted to see if there was any change in the opinions. Also, if anything else jumps out at you, please share. Thanks!

    Is this an Eleanor or a Franklin?

    Ugh. Seriously not what we were hoping for regarding Althea, I mean, Al. We can't keep a rooster and the hatchery will take him back if he is indeed a male but that makes me pretty sad as we've all become attached already. At this point do we just wait until the lack of eggs and hear a...

    Is this an Eleanor or a Franklin?

    Oh my, Rhodebar Lover. That's not what I wanted to hear about Althea but I certainly appreciate your input. For what, in particular, should we keep looking to determine the gender? S/he has also been involved in more chest bumping with Eleanor lately but I did read that both sexes will...

    Is this an Eleanor or a Franklin?

    I could have sworn I posted this earlier today but I can't find the alleged post anywhere so apparently I didn't. Let me try again. I took more pictures of Eleanor this morning that definitely show greenish legs but also some gray coming in around her neck, wings and tail. Delaware or Easter...

    Is this an Eleanor or a Franklin?

    Well, I've been researching combs, columbian feather patterns, and everything else I could find that you all have mentioned and...heck if I know. Eleanor does have some grey/black coming in on her wings and tail feathers if that means anything. I'll take some more pictures of her next time I...

    Is this an Eleanor or a Franklin?

    Thank you! You guys are the best. We can't have roosters so I'm relieved I can keep my little flock intact. Eleanor is so much bigger than the other three which is why I've been wondering. I was also told she was a Delaware when I bought her so maybe Easter Eggers are bigger? Must go research...

    Is this an Eleanor or a Franklin?

    Hi, I just joined BYC and have been warmly welcomed in the Introductions section. It was suggested I post some pictures here of my one chick that is sort of starting to feel a little he-like to me. I realize it's hard to tell at 24 days but if anything jumps out at you pros, I'd appreciate it...

    Thanks so much for all the warm welcomes! I know I'm going to have lots of questions (including my spidey senses telling me my Eleanor Roosevelt might actually be a Franklin?) so I will be sure to check out all parts of the site. CC

    Hi, I have read a lot of incredibly helpful information on this site for the past few months but wanted to now join officially. This is my first go at chickens but so far, so good thanks to a lot of what I've found here. I have four 24 day old chicks. Eleanor Roosevelt is a Delaware, Amelia...
